## Description

Chronological posts reverses the default post order throughout your site to be chronological
instead of reverse-chronological. This can be useful for sites displaying historical
content, journals, books, etc. where the content is intended to be read chronologically(
typically, it works well for any sites where the entire content of the site – every
post – is intended to be read sequentially). It is also useful for archived sites,
preserving the history of posts in a sequential format, oldest to newest.

## Installation

 1. Take the easy route and install through the WordPress plugin installer, or,
 2. Download the .zip file and upload the unzipped folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

## FAQ

### Where are the options?

There are no options. When active, this plugin will automatically display your posts
in chronological order on all views, including the main blog index day/month/year
archives, category/tag archives, author archives, searches, etc. The admin UI is
not changed, only the frontend display.

### Displaying only specific post types in chronological order

This plugin changes all post types to be chronological, globally. To apply it only
to a specific post type, I suggest forking the plugin and adding a simple check 
for the post type of the query before it sets the query order to `ASC`. This is 
not a complicated process – the plugin has only 6 lines of code.

Does something very simple, very easily – that is to make the posts chronological.
This is excellent for any type of study – a book, a series, a course or even programs.
This should have been an automatic option in WP. It would be nice to have options
to make some categories chono and others non-chrono. Thats another level

The plugin was just what I needed. It is perfect for my online course. I use the
category for the course title and the posts for the chapters. Thank you.

When reversing posts, the labels Next Post/Prev Post remains the same. It means 
that in order to chronologically continue reading you have to click Prev Post instead
of Next Post. It's kind of misleading.

Probably the least painful — as in 0 on a 10 scale — of any plugin I've used on 
WordPress. It works. Boom.
